Most of us find it difficult to climb even "ordinary" 10,000 foot
mountains and it amazes us when we see people ascend mountains such
as Mount McKinley, (20,320 feet), Annapurna, (26545) and the tallest of
them all Mt. Everest (29,035 ). Its difficult enough to reach these heights
if you strong and healthy and haven't handicaps. Can you imagine to do it
blind? Eric Weihenmayer can. Eric was born with some sight but legally
blind. By the time he was thirteen, he has lost his sight complete. He had
graduated from high school as captain of the wrestling team and knew
that he wanted to show the world that blind people can do. He had gone
to Boston College and a teaching career. He also started mountain climb
and since than he has experienced many "firsts." He was a first blind
person to walk the Inca trail to Machu Picchu, a first to reach a summit of
Mt. McKinley in Alaska and, in 2001, he became the first blind person to
scale Mt. Everest.
